missing

Thursday, 23 July 2015

Few clues have been found in the on going search for missing local girl, Nora Gilbert.

However, it has now been discovered that Maren Digby, the young woman Nora was on her way to see the night she disappeared, has also been reported missing. Her father claims that he has not seen or heard from his daughter since June 1st. He states that he didn't report her missing sooner because he believed that she was on holiday with a friend. Maren had planned to leave early June 2nd for a remote beach town on the coast of North Carolina. Her father became worried when several weeks had passed without any word from her.

He then learned that Maren never left for her vacation.

There was a verbal altercation between Maren, Nora, and Bradley Somers on the night of June 1st. It is not known what happened after this and Mr. Somers can not be reached. Mr. Somers is deemed a person of interest in this case.

Nora's mother, Lacey Gilbert, informed police that she found a letter from her daughter that indicated Nora was going to see Maren. The letter also stated that Nora wasn't sure she would be coming home. Ms. Gilbert claims she wasn't concerned as Nora had made threats like this before. Though when she didn't hear from her daughter after twenty-four hours, Ms. Gilbert realized something was wrong.

Ms. Gilbert has released the letter in question in hopes that someone will be able to explain what happened to Nora.

If you have any information about the disappearance of Nora Gilbert or Maren Digby, please contact the Blackfield Police Department.
